Playcentre volunteers sick of 'senseless' vandalism
A team of volunteers running a playcentre repeatedly targeted by vandals say they are "frustrated" by the "senseless" and "wasteful" attacks.
Renwick Playcentre, west of Blenheim, has been vandalised twice this month, most recently over the long Labour Day weekend.
The culprits have smeared paint on the play equipment, similar to vandalism at the playcentre last summer, which stopped over the colder months. Read more here
Blenheim police confirmed they were investigating and said anyone with information could call the Blenheim police station, or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
